MAYA JAMA hit back at Gary Lineker after he revealed her relationship status.
The pair appeared at the Baller League draft, with Maya and Lineker rival managers.
Lineker is in charge of Deportrio alongside his podcast pals Alan Shearer and Micah Richards.
And he already had to jokingly scold his co-manager Richards as he accused him of flirting with Maya, who will oversee MVPs United alongside Juventus Women’s star Alisha Lehmann.
Maya was talking about her side’s chances in the six-aside tournament when she was interrupted by Richards, who she labelled her “nemesis”.
The pair were busy joking about Maya suggesting Richards, 36, looks 40-years-old.

Lineker then got involved, and joked: “Michah stop flirting and get her boyfriend to play for us!”
Maya quipped back: “Get out! This is why I don’t talk to old people. They’re so weird.”
Lineker revealed Maya is in a relationship amid rumours she is dating Manchester City star Ruben Dias.
The Sun revealed how the pair had secretly been dating for months after meeting at the MTV EMAs but the Love Island host remained tight-lipped on the romance.
